Membership Drive Show

For tomorrow's "Sittin' At The Crossroad" my friend Big Daddy O' will join me for the whole show and play some music for us LIVE. My other guest had to cancel due to 'work', she's a movie star too. Olga will join me in two weeks for a live set.

For all of you who join or renew your membership during my show, I have a special gift for you from me. I will send you my "May All Your Blues Be On The Radio" bumper sticker. Regardless of the amount of your donation (within reason), in addition to any premiums from the station, I will personally mail to this bumper sticker that I give to guests and fans of my show. Since I have had a couple of requests, I will autograph it if you prefer. Your support is critical to the strength of WWOZ and its ability to bring your the music you love, this is my way of saying thanks for pledging during Crossroad.

"Ma Tit' Fille" was recorded for Buckwheat Zydeco's Island Records début on the day before the second weekend of Jazz Fest, 1987. The version in the video below was filmed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1989, with Lee Allen Zeno on bass; Dennis Taylor, sax; Melvin Veazie, guitar; Patrick Landry, rubboard; Herman "Rat" Brown, drums.

The 16th annual Wednesday at the Square in Lafayette Square lineup is out! This annual springtime concert series features local artists and food and drink vendors and, for the eager, marks the start of festival season.

A Friday treat for blues lovers: the late great Koko Taylor doing 6+ minutes of "Can't Let Go" live at the Woodlands in 1993. Per Lyle Lovett, who introduces the video, she's backed by the Alligator All-Stars.
